EBR will be interesting to watch this season. I don't expect them to win or anything, but what level of improvement they can achieve might (a big might) surprise people.

Larry's crew chief is at a lot of our WMRRA rounds, and he worked with me quite a bit on a chatter problem I was having during a trackday. He said they've made a LOT of changes to the EBR bike since they got a hold of it, and he was excited to see what they could do in WSBK.

The EVO-ish rules will help them a bit, I think.

M620 turned M800 but then back to M620 after the M800 died at 110k, and now to Multi 1000.

Someone needs to send Guintoli a DVD of 'Groundhog Day'.

Sounds like Guintoli hit the deck during the Jerez test today, and did not continue riding due to "suspected neck and leg injuries."

I hope he's cleared to ride tomorrow.

+1. I think he's the guy to beat this year now that he is finally on good equipment.
